After a long morning of people fussing over her, Emma stood outside the hall with her father. She grasped his arm and let out a breath.

"You alright there Ems?" David looked down at her with concern.

She nods and smiles. "Just a little nervous."

Her father grins and presses a kiss to her cheek. "This is the happiest day of your life, there is nothing to be nervous about." Light tears form in his eyes. "You look lovely."

"Thanks papa." Emma dabs away a few tears and readjusts her cream lace gown.

The doors opened, and all Emma can see is the kingdom before her. Everyone stood watching the King and Princess.

David nods and starts leading her down the aisle as soft music plays. Emma keeps her eyes straight ahead, waiting for the crowd to pass so that she can see Killian. When the crowd dispenses, she meets eyes with her beloved. A smile instantly covers her face, and all her fears fly away.

Killian's face brightens as he takes in the image of his beautiful bride. He couldn't believe that after everything, he was marrying this brave woman. Small tears trickled down his cheeks at the thought of her being his forever. Always by his side.

As they reached the alter, David pulled his daughter close, and held her one last time. He remembered when she was born, and he held her for the first time. While she had been tiny, but she had a fierceness in her eyes, even then. She had grown up independent and responsible. He knew she had seen taking the throne to be an honor, but a husband was seen as a duty. His heart swelled as he watched her take Killian's hand, knowing that was no longer the case. He kissed her one last time, and let go of his Princess.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today..."

Snow dabbed away her tears with her handkerchief as her husband took his seat beside her. David reaches over and takes her hand as they watch Emma promise herself to the man she loved. The Queen had always dreamed of her daughter finding love, but she never imagined her "Prince" would be a pirate. But as she'd gotten to know Killian over the last few months, she could see why Emma loved him. Joy overwhelmed her as the couple took to proclaiming their own vows.

"Killian," Emma starts, and is already tearing up. "I've always believed in True Love. It's in my blood." She cast her green eyes down at her smiling parents. "But it wasn't something I ever thought I'd find. See, marriage for royalty usually means marrying a prince from another kingdom to join the two. It doesn't mean love, except in the rare case of my parents. When I met you, I was drawn to you, but I never dreamed it would lead to love." She lets go of his hand to wipe her eyes. He looks at her with great joy and love. She swallowed the lump in her throat and continued. "I have learned a lot from you, and from the adventures we have been on." The couple chuckles. "I've learned that it doesn't matter what you've done in the past, everyone has the choice of their own happiness. Everyone can choice love." Emma's eyes land on Regina and Robin in the front row. Their hands intertwined made Emma's smile a little bit bigger. Regina wipes away a tear and nods at her friend. The Bride turns back to her Groom and squeezes his hand. "I love you. You are what I've dreamed of finding, but never thought was possible. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you." She lets out a breath as she finishes, and the crowd cheers.

Emma helps Killian wipe away a few water droplets while the group settles. They clasp hands once more, and Killian begins his vow.

"Emma, all I've known is loss and heartache. I've lost everyone I ever loved. When I met you, I'd love to say that your deviousness is what charmed me, but it was your beauty. You're undeniably lovely, but what I have learned is that you are equally, if not more, extremely determined, selfless, and brave. Your looks may have been the first thing to catch my attention, but I fell in love with you after you dragged me out of that jail cell, and took down that fleet of sailors all on your own." Emma, and the crowd laughs. "I fell in love with your heart. I love you will the deepest parts of my soul. Everything I am has been captured by your presence. I thought I'd known love before, but nothing I felt can compare to what I feel for you. Everyday, I fall deeper in love with you. I don't know what the future holds, but I'm ready to face anything, as long as you're by my side." Emma tries to form a smile through the tears. Killian wipes them away with his hand before cupping her cheek.

"And by the power vested in me, I know pronounce you Husband and Wife. Killian, you may kiss the bride." The priest nods and Killian looks happily at Emma. He carefully places his lips over hers and the crowd erupts.

"I love you." Emma whispers to him, her arms around his neck.

"I love you too." He smiles. The couple pull apart, and hold hands in front of the group.

Emma's eyes fall on her parents, who are happily clapping and crying. She then turns her head to her friend, to find her holding tightly to Robin and gazing upon Emma and Killian with admiration.

Emma looked down at her new wedding ring and smiled.

It wasn't the crown on her head. No, this, this was her happy ending.
